Do a search for "Obama Antichrist" and you'll see plenty of examples. "Obama devil" gets some hits, too.

The worst election result is losing the house, senate, and presidency all at once. Look at who has power, not the votes.

For instance, the "alternative facts" comment/incident is being talked about everywhere That's exactly why they said it. Notice how it distracted everyone from talking about the ma…

2 factor authentication is great, but it won't stop an attacker from using an XSS attack to get the authentication cookie. In general, security isn't something that can be tacked o…

Not to mention, it doesn't matter if things are kept up to date when Wordpress takes months to issue a patch for critical security problems.

Yeah, I wish I could recommend WordPress to people because it's really nice at what it does, but the security flaws are too serious.The fact that it takes months for them to fix se…

Yeap, you're right, I misread. Here is a quote from the paper: "15% of these exploits were created before the disclosure of the corresponding vulnerability." So there's a lower bou…

The study says that most vulnerabilities were being exploited before being disclosed.

It should be pointed out that most vulnerabilities are, in fact, being exploited before they are patched. Citation in this article: https://medium.com/@xParXnoiAx/irresponsible-dis…

No, absolutely not. Even if their intentions are good, they still have shown some questionable competence, for example: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/03/31/trend_micro_patches_…

I'm curious whether any physicists here have read this book and found its claims justified. Which claim in particular? I recommend the book, not so much because of its conclusions,…

I'm doubting the sentence quoted.

"And it's not possible to shift a person people into all of those categories, it's mostly inborn" You're making a helluvan assertion there. You're going to need a citation, because…

Democracy works as well as the voters. It hasn't stopped working, for an example close-to-home, look at the corruption in SF, that has been there for over a century. As long as vot…

The article itself addresses your point, saying, "modern writers have tried to show that the Spanish conquistadors exaggerated the human sacrifice; archaeology has shown that, if a…

So......do you understand what they were doing with all those human sacrifices? Because I sure don't. I can make guesses, just as the article does, but I sure don't understand it.

Most cultures of the world had some form of human sacrifice in their past history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_sacrifice It's kind of a strange aspect of humanity.

To the point that sometimes, it seems they go out of their way to make things insecure...........

At DefCon, someone did a talk investigating the wireless security of some drones. Some of them had a TELNET port open for anyone to log in. The problem here isn't a lack of formal …

To some degree that's a compromise. There are people who want neither nudity nor violence on TV, but they've lost the violence fight (somewhat: there are still limits, see http://s…

Me too.

It matters if you're actually formulating an argument. I understand what you are saying What is the argument? If you start thinking about it, I think you'll find it's actually quit…
